We Been Here Before (Salon Talk)
<p>Sometime last year that I can't remember because I am a new parent, I was invited to speak at the <em>ecopossibilities</em> salon held by brotha Derrick Beasley and Monet Marshall in Durham North Carolina. This is the re-recording of my talk that was given to an intimate audience of artists, creatives, folk with resources, etc that extended my work from private to public in a "this is in the drafts" kind of way.</p> <p>I tend to not share ideas that ain't near perfect or totally clear, but this talk helped me put together some of the words and bars I needed to release about this project. Here's a link to the supporting <a href="https://www.canva.com/design/DAFsjl9ZGS4/EkCavDlymZ4x8Ov6GxJLVw/edit?utm_content=DAFsjl9ZGS4&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=sharebutton" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">deck and visual aids</a>.</p> <p>For ways to stay connected or support the yonda project hit me up at <a href="mailto:quay@yondaproject.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Quay@YondaProject.com</a></p>
